NOTE: After you set up the operating system, make sure that the latest BIOS, drivers, and software updates
are installed.
CAUTION: Do not add optional hardware or third-party devices to the workstation until the operating
system is successfully installed. Adding hardware might cause errors and prevent the operating system from
installing correctly.
System RAM
HP supports dierent amounts of total RAM in various HP workstations, based on the number of hardware
DIMM slots and the capabilities of the system. The total memory supported for each conguration is listed in
the Hardware Support Matrix for HP Linux Workstations at http://www.hp.com/support/
linux_hardware_matrix.
Audio
All HP workstations come with built-in audio hardware. The audio hardware is supported by the Advanced
Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) drivers included with all modern Linux distributions.
The audio hardware provides basic playback and recording features. The ability to simultaneously play audio
from multiple sources, such as applications and CDs, is provided in the ALSA driver that provides audio mixing.
The performance of software audio mixing and playback is greatly improved in ALSA version 1.0.13 and later.
After the driver is installed, the optional NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards that are supported in HP
workstations also provide audio functionality over HDMI. The signal can be passed through the DisplayPort
connector to a monitor with audio capabilities. The vendor driver must be installed. Such a conguration
might present two audio hardware choices. If you do not hear sound through the speakers, one possible
